Description of the problem	Clicking and shaking when in 4x4 mode. Sounded like u joints. After having it checked by a mechanic, he found both sides needed ball joints and the u joints on the axle was worn out. This was an expensive repair of over $1200. Also the tie rod ends needed replacement. He said that the weight of the diesel engine was the cause. He said that all of these front ends with the diesel engine needed to be replaced after about 70k miles. I am disappointed.
